Emily Christian, Columnist

Emily Christian is an eighth grader in her first year at Horizon Honors, and is looking forward to writing articles as a columnist testing the waters of Journalism. Christian enjoys binge watching shows (and binge reading, for her favorite series is over 30 books long), drawing animals, admiring merch at Hot Topic but being too broke to buy any, and decorating her room. She strongly dislikes waking up early, but figure skating before school demands her to do so (4:30 a.m.? Seriously?). When Christian was in sixth grade, she had a huge Pokémon obsession, in which she called her Lucario and her Infernape her “daughters.”
